Reactivating ancient landslides through reservoir construction – the Hoseynabad-e Kalpush landslide in Iran
The Landslide Blog is written by Dave Petley, who is widely recognized as a world leader in the study and management of landslides. A known potential issue with the construction of reservoirs is the reactivation of ancient landslides that have lain dormant in the landscape. There are literally hundreds of documented examples, but as dam […]
